Here's Tracy Sizemore's new Savage Worlds setting: Han Cluster! In the future, mankind has build a new colony in the stars after the Earth was plagued by environmental and economic crises. But Earth has not been completely abandoned and forgotten – in fact, it's on its way to recovery and a cold war is brewing between Earth and the colonies in the Han Cluster. Meanwhile, humans and Ghosted Machines (sapient AIs) discover a phenomenon called "the Nex" which doesn't just change how people define humanity, but also how you play at the table! We take a first look into the setting via the Jumpstart and discuss the shape of a whisky bottle (possibly also its contents).

We open ourselves a bottle of blended scotch and check out what's in the book.

In our recording, I mistakenly used the term "Handicaps" for Hindrances, which is what they're called in the German translation of SWADE. I mix those up all the time because it's English as well... Sorry for that!
